If you were an agent would you:

a. Steer your client to Houston knowing you could fucking fleece the morons that run the place?

or b. Steer your clients away from Houston so that they avoid the shit show?

Those Easterby videos are beyond cringy.

What a clown show.

Quote

One player privately commented to ESPN that the Texans are weeding out employees who were not hired by executive vice president Jack Easterby and new general manager Nick Caserio, replacing them with employees who will be indebted to them for their work.

So when does training camp turn into Jesus Camp?

Between Bible study, prayer, choir, fellowship and devotion how much football time do you think they can squeeze in before 9pm curfew? 2 hours?

Can I bet every dollar I have on the Texans to not win the Super Bowl in 2022 and collect 1/100th of that?

Yes, but it's like earning 1 percent interest on your money. So ... not a great investment.

What's the odds that:

NRG implants a prayer before the national anthem next year?

They replace the cotton candy guy with a donation plate peddler?

All of the videos produced and played are spiritual in nature?

Not sure what he heard specifically but Boomer was on his radio show this morning with co-host Gio and said during SB week had heard quite a bit on what was going on with Easterby and the Texans and said essentially media people were saying it was scary bad.
 

Boomer said he’d been critical of Watson for signing the contract and wanting out. Said based on what he heard this week that Watson needed to GTFO and he now understands why Watson wants out. Repeated the phrase, “Get out.” Gio asked what Boomer had heard and Boomer would not elaborate further. Gio asked if it had to do with Easterby and Boomer acknowledged it did. Just said what he heard this week made him do a 180 on the whole Watson thing and he supported Watson for getting out and completely understood why. Said he could understand why Watson would want no part of this new culture. 
 

Sucks he wouldn’t say specifically what he heard. But other media types have also hinted that there is something way more wrong than the shit we have already been hearing and speculating about.

John and Lance have been playing clips of Easterby’s standup act and he plays heavily to racial stereotypes and the “accent” and language/slang he uses based on the racial makeup of the audience. I don’t know if it fireable but it’s so damn cringy. This is all a joke. 
 

Also, the 3 long time employees (field and equipment manager types) they fired on Friday had staffs, most of whom worked for the Texans for 10+ years, and most/all of the staff is being let go this week.

At this point , you have to be the most ignorant, blind and tone deaf fan to drop this organization a penny. All these die hard fans ( costume dressing freaks who do it for attention) will have nobody to blame but themselves. This "culture " heehaw and rev. Jack are creating will be the death of this nfl franchise.

Nothing personal, but I hate shit like this.  The Texans through their own incompetence are an easy target for clowns like Boomer. He gives no specifics or clues just that he heard a bunch of stuff. Whatever happened to 'don't believe everything you hear?' If the guy can't back it up with solid information, maybe he shouldn't be gossiping like a teenage drama queen. I'm sure the DW to the Jets rumors played no part in his decision to share this juicy gossip.

 

And it's not just in this situation. But it seems like the media spends more time gossiping than discussing actual facts these days.

OK Boomer

Finally decided to look it up...Boomer Esiason. I’ve never listened to the show so I had no idea he even had one. I thought she was referencing some local guy with sources in the team. Since I work from home now, I rarely am in the car to listen to any sports talk. I’m really out of touch with who has a show and who doesn’t anymore.

Cal:  We have decided we will be reassigning Easterby.

*smoke bomb*

Cal: We'd like to introduce Jack Easterby as the new President of the Houston Texans! 

Posted

We are hopefully near the point that the board removes Cal from control. They can fire Easterby. If they want to terminate Caserio by saying he was hired under false pretenses so be it. I hope this is an acceleration of “it has to get worse before it gets better.”

April 2020 BoB said Rootes ran the buisness side while easterby ran the football side.
After today easterby will be in total control.

Fire whatever limp-dicked coach we hired, too. I'm so apathetic I'm struggling to come up with his name.

What board is there? Isn’t it janices team and she is letting her son play with it like a toy

I imagine there are some minor owners but unless they get to Janice nothing will happen.

From everything I have read it’s actually Janice’s team. And I’d bet good money Easterbunny is whispering sweet nothings in her ear. Seen it dozens of times on Young and the Restless.

The NFL should bar inherited ownership.

Janice is the majority owner. Per the radio guys, the Texans are managed by an executive board including Cal, Cal’s more business savvy and somewhat respected brother, and other minority owners. They appoint the chairman/CEO. The CEO has personnel authority over president, VPs, and GM. A new CEO could fire Easterby and do something about the president vacancy and however they want to handle Caserio.

This is generally correct. I just talked to a friend who hangs with Rootes.  

Rootes was very close with Bob McNair. After Bob's death I think he was starting to look at other opportunities. His resignation is not directly tied to the current mess, but it was probably the final nail in the coffin.

My grandparents have been invested in the Texans since the beginning (McNair and my granddad were friends). Minority owners are consulted in a benevolent dictatorship sort of way, but they have no say.  It is all the McNairs.  Janice is the owner and let's Cal run it.

This is how I picture Jamey Rootes right about now:

Caserio probably is ok to stay unless he voluntarily walks.  Gotta believe Easterby has to go...

I've been passively following this franchise for 20 years. This is by far the most entertainment they've provided.

And at the end of the day, isn't that the point?

Yeah they created in me a new form of fandom. Or at least for me. My favorite team each week is whoever is playing the Texans, and what joys that has brought. So many late game comebacks and miracle finishes and for once, as a lifelong fan of Houston sports teams, I am on the winning side of them. Every Texans choke job is another clutch win for my team of the week. And now this jaw-dropping soap opera behind the scenes involving billionaire Evangelicals self-immolating in bright white fires of smug and stupid self-righteousness...Borderline erotic, man.
